Revisiting adiabatic fraction estimations in cumulus clouds: high-resolution simulations with a passive tracer
<p>The process of mixing in warm convective clouds and its effects on microphysics are crucial for an accurate description of cloud fields, weather, and climate. Still, they remain open questions in the field of cloud physics. Adiabatic regions in the cloud could be considered non-mixed areas...
